CHICAGO, September 26.-The grain markets
during the early part OF the session showed
more independence OF each other than for some
time. Operators appear to be getting over
! their Indifference and are individually at work
on the problem OF futures prices. Cables were
firm, receipts moderate. News regarding crops
were Insignificant and the pits were somewhat
! active. Wheat opened somewhat unsteady
with upward tendency, credited to coverings
by shorts, continued active throughout the ses-
Il GlOQ ana At times was considerably eXCltoQ. 1t
| was an old fashioned "bull" day. Prices were
| advanced &c above the closing figures of Sstur-
| day. the improvement being gradual at
cary cary i in the DAY that the visible supply would
| show larger decrease than had been calcutta
| ted upon, and this induced free buying, with
| shorts covering freely. By the time the visible
| supply was announced, prices had advanced
| 5zand when the announcement 3d. 900 decrease
| was made prices were further advanced e and
ton Of the trading was Comprised in the buy
| ing Of october and selling for November and
| May at ruling differences. The receipts at
a. all other points october opened Is and Il C.
higher at 70@ and sold steadily uD 70 7l54 at
| which figure 1t closed. May opened 1875 aud
| after selling at 7SA declined to 1874 ana 7S1z
| but later advanced with the other futures and
closed t79. corn was firmer to-day with trading
| quite active, the near futures In particular
| showing considersb bic strength. Opening sales
We at shade advance over the closing prices
of Saturday, after which the market ruled
steady, then becsme quite active and prices
| advanced 5sG54 for near futures and 5s6% for
| May, Tuled steady and at p. m. was 5s954c.
higher for near futures and &c. higher for May
/ than the closing prices OF Saturday. Receipts
were less than expected and arrivals tor tO-mOr-
row S25 cars. not large considering they are for
| IS hours. In the afternoon the market sold of
i Is all srouI on realizing by longs and weak
| ness in wheat. October opened at 419S sold al
/ Az, declined to 411zGe415s. then advanced with
slight changes to 42c., reeeding to 4l5S. the clos
/ ing price. May opened at ~ and with trifing
1 fluctuations went to 49, closing at 4454c
/ Oats were degree steadier, but there was no
/ material change in values, except for May,
1 which ranged &c higher. The market did not
| seem to gain any to speak of from the improve
1 ment In other cereals, fJr the speculative de-
4 mand was rather slack. Neither was 1t affected
4 particularly by the afternoon weakness. May
sold at 295s02gi4c, closing AT 2S54e. Provisions
| were moderately active, but unsettled. Receipts
| Of hogs were liberia, and prices 5910c lower
i The feature of the trace was the snake out IN
Il October short ribs Almost everybody had q
few waiting for an Armour or somebody else
| to put prices up for them to unload Taey

| The first transactions were at zoe de
cline from Saturdays close at soc, followed
| BY break with hardly breathing spell tos7 65
but rallied to e. SIX or 37zc. lower than Sstur-
| day and closed finally at "a below that figure
January opened sc. over at IS 20. Shor.s became
/ scarce and bought freely and prices advanced

| 96271z. Lard was fairly active aud sold lower
early, but rallied and closed steady. Stocks
